Students will code their own flying Santa game in Scratch, a block-based programming language developed at MIT. This class has been designed for students ages 6-10 with any level of coding experience - all are welcome! Students will learn: - How to think like a game designer! - How to code Santa’s sleigh to move with the arrow keys - How to use loops and cloning to create an endless stream of presents for Santa to collect - More advanced students will learn how to create a variable to count how many presents they collect The class will be highly interactive since we cap our classes at 6 students. The teacher will work with students to create a project they can be proud of while answering questions and providing support along the way. Here’s what your student can expect to do during class: - Welcome + Introductions (5 minutes) - Scratch Setup + Login (5 minutes) - Warm up with holiday trivia (10 minutes) - Code a flying santa game in Scratch!
